Strangely, I had completely missed reading the "missing girl" thread. I CANNOT BELIEVE that Kadmos came out with his shit... accusing a member of being "racist" because he was concerned if the girl had been near the Mexican border.
DAMN! Even if he really did think it was racist, THAT thread was no place to say so. Now that I've seen it' I'm not even sorry that he got banned... and LAGC had it coming for a year or more, so buh-bye to them both. The bullshit had reached critical mass and I'm glad someone finally flushed.
(on another note that missing girl story scares the hell out of me... my daughter is 13-1/2 and looks a lot like the girl in the pic... redhead and freckles... can't imagine what I would do).

I don't think "staff affairs" are really being discussed. It's no secret that LAGC and Kadmos have been on almost everyone's shitlist this past year and it's no secret that they were walking "the fine line".
And if there had been a staff vote, I am 100% convinced the outcome would have been the same. I haven't heard from anyone who DISAGREES with it.

Is it just me, or is this forum more lively tonight with everyone knowing that those two clowns are on the other side of the fence now? Seems like everyone is in better spirits now that there won't be any more thread derailments for a while.
Scheutz, thank you!
IMHO you did the right thing. LAGC seemed to like to start shit by posting countless "look how stupid this conservative is" or "global warming will kill us all" threads and then arguing incessantly with people who he knows won't agree with him.
Kadmos on the other hand liked to derail every thread and turn it into an I'm smarter and more enlightened than you are argument.
It made it hard to read the threads on here when every other one got turned into an argument.
I think things are lookin' up!
I think you're 100% right. We got desensitized to THEM. I guess what really got to me was seeing the pic of the girl who looks a lot like my daughter and then reading what Kad posted... he was more concerned about someone "looking racist" than he was about someone's DAUGHTER being missing. I was probably as "desensitized" to them as anyone, but the topic of that particular thread slapped me back to reality.

Funny thing is most of the buzz is about the two guys that everyone was sick of hearing from. Even banned they are still dominating this forum.

Well, my opinion, easily 90% of us on here are delighted with this. And let me be the first to say to any possible lurkers on here who have avoided joining because of them, try it now. Join us. We finally flushed a toilet.
Whoever is finally responsible for it, thank you. I have been vocal in my desire for this outcome, and it finally happened.
"What sick, barbaric bastards.
It's one thing to use terrorism to make a political statement, but the wanton mutilation and suffering of innocents? How does that forward your political goals? When done in the name of religion, how does that earn you brownie points with God?
Fuck religious extremism. And especially fuck the "religion of peace." "
So, lagcsocialist supports terrorism AS LONG AS ITS FOR POLITICAL ENDS....
Thank you. The missing girl comments where well you know.
